Under the outer jacket (cut/score with a 20AWG wire cutter and yank off), there's a clear inner jacket. Carefully split that with a knife and you'll see two corona wires (common) and the central, phospor(?)-covered wire can be split apart to reveal three conductors. Solder four new wires on, heatshrink, et voila.</p>

We didn't even bother sealing up the end, but you'd want to do that to prevent shorts long-term. Now, to see how hard it is to solder back together...</p>
